Has anyone been to Ale & Compass for dinner? I've been for breakfast and it was stellar. Also, does anyone know if we get to order an alcoholic drink if we go to breakfast on the Deluxe plan? I love the bloody mary at A&C.

That is a great breakfast; I did it in July with my kids. Since this is a solo trip, I am looking for something different.

I have the Deluxe dining pan for the first night of my Solo trip (this weekend). I plan to use 2 of the meal credits for a California Grill dinner. I'm having trouble deciding how to use my 3rd dining credit. What is the best use of one Deluxe dining credit? I'll be staying at Boardwalk and want...

You're going to love it! Let me know if you want to get together for a drink or a meal, etc.

I'm doing my first solo trip in 2 weeks. Yes, I'm a little nervous, but I want to push myself out of my comfort zone. I've been going to movies alone for a year, and I often eat dinner alone when out shopping (usually at the bar of a nice restaurant). So I plan to eat at some of the nicer...

I will be solo Oct. 6-10; I'd love to meet some fellow DISers, especially someone interested in Food and Wine festival and Disney Springs.

I'm a solo traveler interested in sharing a "meal" at Food and Wine festival sometime the evenings of 10/6-10/9.

I'm doing my first solo trip in a few weeks and plan to do a lot of my eating at the Food & Wine festival. However, I'm toying with the idea of doing that for lunches vs dinners so I can visit some of of lounges/eat at the bars of some of my favorite restaurants (e.g. Cali Grill). Which lounges...

I'm heading there Oct. 6-10. Let me know if you decide to go then. -Amy

Hello, I'm doing my first solo trip Oct. 6-10. I'd love meet some fellow DISers while I'm there. Anyone going then?

Thanks all for commiserating. I know that room requests are only requests. And I also know that "near lobby" is the most common request at AKL. I'm not angry with the CMs about this... I'm just stressed about the logistics of this trip. But seriously, I have to wonder if literally EVERY person...

I leave tonight for my first trip as a solo adult with three (special needs) kids (not my first Disney trip, just my first time going sans husband). Our flight arrives at 11:35pm, so I was a bit nervous about arriving and getting to the room quickly to get the kids to sleep, especially since we...

Wonderful report! We have done Deluxe Dining a few times and greatly enjoyed it. However, once they increased the prices a couple of times, we switched to the Tables in Wonderland discount and now I just order as if In on DxDP except I don't usually have three courses at each meal (and I order...

Yes, what she said. We loved it so much that I got the recipe and searched far and wide for the ingredients to make them at home (ended up ordering the smoke syrup online in fact). SOO yummy!

Yep, what they ^ said... Boma, The Wave, Grand Floridian Cafe, 1900 Park Fare, Kona, O'hana.... We also like Whispering Canyon. We look forward to trying Trail's End this trip. Olivia's was good, but I wouldn't go out of my way to get there.

I currently have a 3-night reservation at Wilderness Lodge in a 2-BR; we only need a studio or 1-BR, so I've been stalking the site trying to find something "cheaper". I just found the first night at BWV in a Studio. However, I am out of points for this year, so I can't just book it and then go...

Hmmm... I think we will be only focused on HP attractions, so now I'm leaning towards just staying at Disney and taking Uber to Universal those two days. Thanks so much to all for your input. I love all of the ideas. And especially the idea to get the seasonal AP for 1 person in the party; but...

We stayed at OKW last trip, so we got a lot of Olivia's then. With three kids, I always try to coordinate our dining with places near where we are staying - we usually stay at a new place every year or so, and it gives us an excuse to try new restaurants :-) But we did enjoy Olivia's a lot. In...

Oooh, I forgot about the sleigh ride. I will have to look into that! That's been on our list for years. I know Ft. Wilderness is not exactly VWL, but I figure while we are close, it's our chance to visit Ft. Wilderness since we usually don't want to deal with the travel required.

Thanks for the advice. I did snag ADRs at both Artist Point and Skipper Canteen. I was on the fence about Artist Point mostly because it's more expensive and we have three kids. I wondered if we'd be better off doing the Fort Wilderness dinner instead, but I think I'll keep AP for now. And I'm...
